Day 4 -Word Quotes ~new release

I can hardly believe we are here at day 4 of the Stamp Release Party for My Craft Spot, I'm having so much fun with these stamps and dies, I hope you are enjoying the new stamps and dies and all the creative projects! 

Today we're sharing a sneak peek of the Word Quotes metal die set that I had the privilege of designing, this is a fun versatile set that will be great for your everyday projects.

Remember all new stamp sets and metal dies will be available for purchase at My Craft Spot on Saturday.

I have several photo tutorials below giving you a few ideas on how to use this metal die set. One of the things that I love about this set is you can make cards in just a few minutes, like I've done below.  I made 3"x3" note cards easy-peasy, the tiny heart and butterfly images I used are from the Small Alphabet metal die set. 

more cards

The Word Quotes metal die is a set of 4; one solid quote bubble, and three quote bubbles with words... hello, friend and thank you.  Below is a photo tutorial of how I made the cards above.

1) cut out two quote bubbles using the solid die, I used a pattern cardstock and a solid cardstock.

2) take the solid cardstock bubble that was just cut and one of the word dies.

3) place it directly over the cardstock, there will be just a small edge of cardstock showing, secure with tape to keep it from moving while die cutting. Cut out with your choice of die cutting machines.

4) here is your cut out image, remove all the pieces in between the hello word.

5) now layer the "hello" word over the pattern cardstock you cut in picture #1.  Love it!!

 Here is another fun idea using the Word Quote metal die...

1) Cut two of the word dies in two colors, I'm using glitter cardstock. Place a few pieces of tape behind the first hello in this case it's the pink hello, this will hold all those tiny pieces in place. keep all the negative pieces from the hello (the pieces you would normally throw away).
2)  Now place all the negative yellow pieces inside of the pink hello.
**Not shown I did decide to cut out a solid quote bubble and glue it on the back of the pink hello after adding all the negative pieces just so everything was secure before adhering it to my card.

How cool is this!!!  Creatively simple and I love the glitter, the butterfly is from the Small Alphabet metal die set.

 And yet I have another idea to share...
1) I took a piece of patterned cardstock size 4 1/8" x 5 1/4" (use any size you like) then cut out one of the word quotes I used the word "friend" (save the dot for the "i" if you want to use it). Also cut out the same word quote in a solid cardstock (the first tutorial on this post shows how to cut this out.
2) Place the solid cardstock directly over the patterned paper matching up the word friend.

Decorate your card as desired.  I took a small piece of cardstock (big enough to fit behind the quote bubble), embossed it using the Cuttlebug embossing folder Divine Swirl.  Added a bit of Caribbean Crinkle ribbon from My Craft Spot along with a flower border from the new Fancy Edges 2 metal die.

Day 2 -Robots ~New Release

I am loving this stamp release party and hope you are to! Today is day 2 of the party for My Craft Spot and we are giving you a sneak peek at another stamp set... Robots. This set is a fun block style font with sentiments that are perfect for Robot type of cards and projects. 

All of the new stamps and metal dies will be available to purchase on Saturday

I couldn't resist grabbing my copper metallic cardstock again for this project, it was perfect for my gear images, I also used silver metallic cardstock.

 I like the fun sentiment for this card.  Gears embossed background is an embossing folder made by The Paper Studio, the cardstock is make by Core'dinations, so after I embossed it I sanded so the core color would show through.

The gear images are cut using my Silhouette Cameo, the image was purchased from the Silhouette Online Store the images can be found -HERE. I also added a few gear image to the inside of my card.

Woo Hoo... so much fun Right?  Join us everyday this week!!

Today we are featuring the Clock Time stamp set that Kimberly has designed, I also used the oldie but goodie 4" Doily metal die, the Tiny Doilies 2 metal die and the Tiny Doilies metal die sets for my project. 

I came a cross this copper metallic cardstock that I've had in my stash for years and thought it would work prefect for my tick-tock clock card.  I love the sentiment in this stamp set.

Close up of the clock image, placed on top of a die cut image from the Tiny Doilies 2 metal die, which is then place on top of the 4" Doily metal die cut image.

 I stamped the clock face with black ink then used gold embossing for the clock hands and added a brad the the center of the clock.

 Below I have a photo tutorial of how I cut the clock image a prefect circle using the Tiny Doilies metal die set.

(This is the Tiny Doilies metal die there are 6 dies in this set)

I used the largest solid circle from this metal die set (upper left corner).

1) cut the circle from a scrap piece of cardstock, on a separate piece of cardstock stamp your image.

2) place the cut out circle cardstock directly over the stamped image secure with tape.

3) place the metal die in the circle cut out, you can feel it drop right into place, secure with tape to keep it from moving when die cutting.

4) die cut as you would any thin metal die using your machine of choice... "ta dah" perfectly cut circle. 

Close up of sentiment from the Clock Time stamp set. I added a bit of copper cording again this has been in my stash for years.

 Side view of card, I used pop-dots to lift the clock from the large doily.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, I hope you enjoyed my card.
